Totally agree. Microsoft has invested way too much in openAI to have a repeat of the Sam Altman debacle. They will formalize their control of te company. And Altman has already shown that in conflict between the board and MS, he’s on Microsoft’s side.

Also, any openAI developer who thinks that openAI currently is an independent company is kidding themselves. Microsoft is effectively already calling the shots, al be it in a roundabout way.

Thirteen years of right wing policies, that have left the country fed up and unaffordable. And what does the electorate conclude. we weren’t right wing enough >.<

Oh well, the people have spoken. Let’s see how long this shit show lasts.

I wouldn’t trust anything “found” by Israeli intelligence. Having said that, according to article, these are plans for:

Hamas units to surround and infiltrate villages and target places where civilians, including children, gather.

Which is reasonably close to what happened. Given how direct and quick the strike was, it’s reasonable to assume that plans of that nature exist.

Then again, October 7th was a a Saturday and a holiday and Hamas attacked early in the morning. If they wanted to kidnap kids, it wouldn’t make sense to target schools.

TLDR: I dunno. Maybe.

Speak for yourself.

I joke, in bad taste. You are right, though The facts are clear. Most people who are suicidal are just looking for a way to stop some type of suffering.

Having said that, I do think it’s important to recognize that this does not apply to all “suicides.” An old person who wants to end their life, because they feel that they’ve lived a full life is technically suicidal. They deserve the right to end their life.

Holy shit. I completely forgot about download managers.

This and shooting in stockholm. Wtf is happening?

demonquark ,

Tbf, this is probably it. It’s just a kneejerk reaction to seeing two shootings at the same time in a region where mass shootings are uncommon.

Latinos for the win, bruh.

The Firefox browser now has a built-in page translator that works even without the Internet (gadgettendency.com)

The Firefox browser now has a built-in page translator that works even without the Internet::Mozilla has announced the release of an update to its Firefox browser. In version number 118, users will find a significant innovation - a built-in translator

demonquark ,

As long as Mozilla remains committed to a free and open internet, I will remain a faithful firefox user.

Even if every update after this one is a useless UI change. :p

Is there really no downsides to eating the rich?

But the bacon is the best part. 🤤🤤

Go for walks in the middle of the night. Like in a residential neighborhood, or an industrial district. It’s just so peaceful.

demonquark ,

There’s basically one far right playbook. Did you really think Netanyahu would change tactics just because he happened to be a Jewish right winger.

demonquark ,

No tourist visas for China, suspending visa services in Canada. This is stupid. Please throw your political temper tantrum in a way that doesn’t hurt regular people.

demonquark ,

The beef with Canada has nothing to with China. It’s just a comment on the ridiculousness of Indian foreign policy.

I completely support ostracizing the Chinese government, but not regular Chinese ppl. I mean, they’re just trying to live their life man. Same as the rest of us.

demonquark ,

Perhaps. But India is the one trying get Canada to do something. India has the bad visa policy. There is no braindrain to India. So, that change won’t work.

I think hurting the people creates a rally-around-the-flag effect. Instead Canadians tell their government to cede to Indian demands, they’ll tell the government to stick it harder to the Indians.

demonquark ,

I really hope so too. I’m tired of Musk.

    Removing the picture is not going to stop impure thoughts about Picards

    Out of my league means that there’s a high chance I’m going to get rejected. How do I know? It happened to me. It happened to my friends.

    Does this guarantee that I will be rejected? No. Does mean that I’m putting the person on a pedestal? No.

    It merely means that being rejected sucks. It’s not fun. And to avoid that sucky feeling I’ve chosen to avoid pursuing people with a high chance of rejection.

    This behavior is not putting people on a pedestal. After all, if people of my league were truly that amazing, it would be worth it to pursue them. Kind of a high risk, high reward approach. Instead, it’s generally true that a relationship with of an out of my league person is just as fulfilling as someone in my league.

    Tldr: out of my league means high risk, low reward

    TIL about Moonbow: Nature's Rare and Beautiful Phenomenon Similar to Rainbow (upload.wikimedia.org)

    A moonbow is a rare and stunning natural phenomenon that occurs when moonlight is refracted and reflected off water droplets in the air, creating a colorful arc of light in the night sky. Similar to a rainbow, moonbows are formed when light is dispersed into its various colors, but they are much rarer and more elusive, as they...

    demonquark ,

    Isn’t that just a rainbow. I mean it’s the same effect. Just with a different light source. Seeing as the light source is not specified in the word rainbow, I don’t see the need to a different word.

    demonquark ,

    Excellent. Now, make a similar statement about corporate spyware.

    demonquark ,

    I think the only reason Super Mario bros earned that much is because … kids. People in general have grown tired of reboots, remakes, cinematic universes, you know, just the blatant milking of IP.

    Then again, Barbie fits in that category. So I dunno.

    I always assumed neelix was a slut.

    Serious question: how will this impact funding (non-religious) services for poorer parents / single mothers?

    The article mentioned a woman who was provided shelter and diapers for 5 months after the birth of their child. I do think that there should be facilities to help women like her. Preferably non-religious, without the anti-abortion misinformation.

    I don’t know how old you are, nor should I, so I can’t do anything to stop you.
